Structured Family Care
The SFC program has some eligibility requirements which you must meet in order to receive financial compensation for the care you deliver to your relative.
Structured Family Care at Lighthouse Homecare is a unique approach that emphasizes collaboration and involvement of the family in the caregiving process.
At Lighthouse Homecare, this model is designed to provide comprehensive and compassionate care while actively engaging and supporting the family members.
Central to this approach is the recognition that families play a crucial role in the well-being of their loved ones. Lighthouse Homecare acknowledges the expertise and intimate knowledge that families possess about their family member’s preferences, routines, and needs. As such, the caregiving team works closely with the family to create a tailored care plan that aligns with the individual’s requirements.
